Approximate value of property: $38 USD with trade guardian then an additional 14 USD
Was Trade Guardian used? Yes

What is the dispute about? The seller asked to trade the account for a giftcard, after the transaction was made, he asked for another giftcard which I argued against but brushed of as a misunderstanding. The account was then reclaimed and the seller said he was not the original owner of the account which is not what was listed in the initial thread.

He didn't specify which account he was talking about. As for the account that was restored, I do not have access to it, the person is responsible for it, im not original owner

 

[Hyperflex18]

I don't believe I need to specify the account when you listed only one in your original thread. So to my knowledge there were no other accounts

I sell accounts not only on this forum

 

[Hyperflex18]

Doesn't change the fact that you listed yourself as the original owner and that you should have control over the products you sell here

 

[Adoxia]

@Katsurooo You stated in your thread that you are the original owner. This falls under our false advertisement rule. Either return the account or issue a refund. Failure to do either will result in a ban.

No, he did not pay the full amount

 

[Adoxia]

No, he did not pay the full amount

You will have to refund the amount that was paid or return the account.

I will not refund the amount paid, I will refund the account for the code

 

[Adoxia]

I will not refund the amount paid, I will refund the account for the code

You stated you did not have the account.
I do not know what code you are talking about. The amount stated in the trade guardian transaction was paid.

Either you can return the account or you can refund the amount of the trade guardian transaction. Ban in 24 hours.

I have conducted further research on @Katsurooo and the steam account he sold me.

Firstly he has been accused of scamming on another website where he was selling the same account at this link: https://www.middleman.net/threads/brawlhalla-account-with-more-skins-and-crossovers.5698199/
He also shows that he has another discord account: Katsuro#7338

Prior to this name, that discord account was named Facade which is important as it is a piece of information that will be useful later on

By doing a search into the steam account, I managed to find the previous account url ids

As we can see, there is a reacurrence of the name facade and katsuro furthermore we see the name zealousol which is one of the people accusing katsuro of scamming him over on ********.

All this information leads me to believe that the account is in fact his and that he is just selling it over and over.


Lastly while this does not help in investigating him, another of his accounts is Katsuro#6780. I found this out on the brawlhalla code trading discord
